Intelligent Service Enablement for COBOL Applications
How can you use your IT functions to better support your business processes? The answer to this question is: Service-oriented architectures enable IT to close the gap between business processes and “traditional data processing.” However: flexible, reusable services do not just pop out of thin air! They have to be developed and maintained. You therefore have to bring together different architectures, development paradigms, languages and platforms:
Generating is better than programming - SCORE Adaptive Bridges delivers easy and efficient Service Enablement

Business processes |

Database transactions |

Tight coupling |
|
Stateless consumer |

Stateful provider |

User-controlled |

Application-controlled |
These pairs of terms make clear that the scope is broader than just interface transformation and connectivity. What is needed is a sustainable interaction between the architectural concepts. The increasing pace of business process development, the size and complexity of the existing core applications, as well as the high demands regarding security and quality – these all call for a methodical approach with the highest possible degree of automation for the development of services.
Services Don't Just Pop Out of Thin Air
They have to be developed and maintained! With SCORE Adaptive Bridges you can quickly and securely provide your mission-critical core applications as real services for new applications.
“Our experiences with SCORE Adaptive Bridges during the prototype and pilot phase proved true as we begun scaling to the actual project size – 60 developers, 30.000 modules and 12.000.000 lines of code. SCORE Adaptive Bridges really does an excellent job.“
Robert Koch, CIO, Suva Schweiz

Read here about the key features and benefits of SCORE Adaptive Bridges:
- Overview – As this is a comprehensive product we offer four different approaches to starting to learning about SCORE Adaptive Bridges. The Business View concentrates on business problems. The Methodology View looks at the methods that we follow. The Process View focuses on what you actually do, whereas the Runtime View presents an overview of what we generate for specific deployment platforms.
- Solutions – To increase the value of your enterprise projects you must reduce the cost of integrating your existing application assets. SCORE Adaptive Bridges maximizes your return on existing investment (ROEI), quickly and simply integrating your unique and valuable legacy applications and databases with your enterprise portal, e-Government, business intelligence, mobile computing and other new business initiatives.
- Supported Platforms – You will find here details of the adapters used to discover information about existing assets, and also to generate the platform specific code that implements a concrete adaptive service.
- Downloads – This part of the Web site brings together all of the downloadable flyers, presentations, case studies and white papers about SCORE Adaptive Bridges. We are adding material on a regular basis so be sure to come back often to get the latest information about SCORE Adaptive Bridges.
